Questions Related to animal tissues, morphology and anatomy of cockroach

Refers to the items listed under different groups in the given table and select the option which correctly indentifies $X$ and $Y$.

Group I Group II
TapewormHookwormLiver fluke      X VultureHyena   YJackal
  1. X - Pinworm, Y - Crow

  2. X - Mosquito, Y - Bison

  3. X - Leech, Y - Koala

  4. X - Bed bug, Y - Wildbeest


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Group 1 represents various members of the Phylum Platyhelminthes while Group 2 includes members of class Aves of vertebrata.

Pinworm and Crow are included in Phylum Platyhelminthes and Aves respectively.
So, the correct option is 'X - Pinworm, Y - Crow'.

Ubisch bodies are connected with the formation of?

  1. Sporopollenin

  2. Intine and pollenkitt

  3. Exine

  4. Pollenkit and pollinia


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
When the anther is young, at the stage of sporogenous tissue, the cells of the tapetum contain numerous spherical bodies called pro-ubisch bodies. The number of pro-ubisch bodies increases by meiosis in Pollen mother cells. These pro-ubisch bodies get coated by sporopollenin and are called ubisch bodies or orbicules. These are involved in the formation of exine of the pollen grains. Thus, the correct answer is option C, Exine.

Unlike animals, plants get energy in the form of

  1. ATP

  2. Soil

  3. Roots

  4. Water


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Chloroplasts contain a pigment called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is able to capture the energy from the sun. In doing this, a series of chemical reactions occur that convert the sun's energy into ATP (energy for the plant). 

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

  1. $4$

  2. $14$

  3. $12$

  4. $40$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

There are four types tissues found in human body namely the muscular, epithelial, connective and nervous.

Population of ferocious Red Ant is kept under check by _______________.

  1. Rufus Wood Pecker

  2. Red-billed Ox Pecker

  3. Yellow-billed Ox-Pecker

  4. Sparrow


Correct Option: A

Unipolar neurons are found in the ______.

  1. Brain

  2. Spinal Cord

  3. Embryonic nervous tissue

  4. Adult nervous tissue


Correct Option: A

Which one is unrelated?

  1. Ca muscle contraction

  2. I thyroid

  3. Co energy liberation

  4. Cl nerve conduction


Correct Option: D

Myelin sheath of nerve fibres is produced by

  1. Axon

  2. Connective tissue

  3. Schwann cells

  4. Neuroglia


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
  • Myelin is a layered substance made of phospholipid, cholesterol and protein that covers the axons of the neurons.
  • It insulates the nerve impulses from the surrounding nerve fibres. 
  • It also increases the speed of impulses through nerve axons.
  • It is formed in the central nervous system by glial cells called the oligodendrocytes.
  • Whereas, in the peripheral nervous system they are produced by Schwann cells.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Schwann cells'.

Myelin sheath has layers of fat and protein

  1. Upto 100

  2. 10-20

  3. Two each

  4. One each


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

  • Myelin is an insulating layer or sheath that forms around nerves, including those in the brain and spinal cord.
  •  It is made up of protein and fatty substances. 
  • This myelin sheath allows electrical impulses to transmit quickly and efficiently along the nerve cells.
  •  If myelin is damaged, these impulses slow down. Hence, the Myelin sheath has layers of fat and protein up to 100.
So, the correct answer is 'up to 100'.

The characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function is its-

  1. Long extensions.

  2. Flat shape.

  3. Ability to change shape.

  4. Ability to engulf bacteria.


Correct Option: A
